    (6700k 1070) Will it throttle below stock speeds at high loads without the prema bios / vbios? Can it handle stock speeds without delidding the cpu?

    What about the warranties offered by the prema partners? (EVOC, AVELL, MYTHLOGIC). Do they offer fast shipping and service? Will they ship me the parts if I am competent to replace them myself? Who offers a good warranty?

    If I have a vendor that offers a good warranty but not a prema bios, can I still donate for a prema bios? If so how much would be suggested?

    How hot will these usually get with a 1070 and a heavy gaming load?

    Am i better off getting the 6700 for the lower clock speeds to lower temperature or the 6700k for a better chance at a good undervolt?

    Does HIDevolution offer a rushed order option?

    I'd also love to hear some comments about the P775DM3 with 6700K and 1070. Gaming performance is of secondary concern to me, I mainly want this machine for productivity... but I can't have it melting when I am using Photoshop. :)

    It should be fine with a 6700K + 1070... A 1080 is also fine but you especially need good thermal pads/paste and good contact with the heatsink in that case..

    If I remember rightly photoshop does not tend to load both chips down heavily in which case if it's mostly one or the other then the heatsink wont struggle at all.
